FAQ
Questions and Answers
In the clear, or ON state, an electrical current is passed through a layer of film called PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal). The electrified state causes microscopic crystals to align along a number of parallel axes, thus allowing vision through the glass.
Smart Film in its OFF state has a frosted or opaque appearance because the PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) remain in a randomized configuration that refracts the light that enters the mixture.
Haze factor describes the amount of light scattered when light passes through a transparent sample. The lower the haze factor value, the higher the clarity of the sample, indicating fewer impurities.
Gauzy’s has a ultra low haze: avg. 2.5%. This is the best in the industry.
PDLC stands for Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal, a cutting-edge smart film technology that allows glass to switch between transparent and opaque states on demand. The film contains millions of microscopic liquid crystal droplets suspended in a polymer matrix. When an electric current is applied, the liquid crystals align, allowing light to pass through and making the glass clear. When the power is off, the crystals scatter light, rendering the glass frosted or opaque, providing instant privacy.
PDLC smart film is widely used in commercial, residential, and automotive applications for:
- Privacy control: Instantly switch windows, partitions, or doors from clear to opaque.
- Dynamic shading: Reduce glare and solar heat gain without blinds or curtains.
- Projection surfaces: Some PDLC films can double as a screen for displays or advertising.
- Energy efficiency: Helps lower cooling costs by controlling light and heat.
